This line used to have a pair of Crown 4-4-0s, now long gone. Dunno if anything whatsoever other than the depot or switcher might be of value to anyone.....

Quote:
The railroad originally had a complete Crown Metal Products three-foot gauge trainset from the Six Guns Amusement Park in Florida. The 4-4-0 steam locomotive proved troublesome for them, so they sold it and bought what I believe is a Brookville diesel to pull the train.

Given that, I suspect that they are asking more than they can get for the homemade stuff, which is probably anything more than having to pay someone to haul it away.
